Ok this is a recreation of Temptalia's Valiant look from the MAC Wonder Women collection.

Here is my look:

Here's what I used:

EYES

Base-True Match all over, then I used NYX JP in Lemon on the outer lid/crease and outer lower lash line.

Lid- On the inner half of the lid, Instead of using Valiant, I used 120 palette (shimmery light green and pale yellow) on the outer lid instead of using Dianna Undercover, I used two colors. My Day to Play palette (dark green) and from the Estee Lauder palette (44 Camoflauge)

Crease- Bring the Dianna Undercover dupes to the crease and then on the outer crease use Spinning Transformation dupe, I used a dirty copper color from my Physician's formula for Blue eyes.

Highlight- Instead of Manilla Paper, I used Claire's palette (white/gold) and I also placed it in the inner corner of the eye.

Liner- I used NYX in Black Bean in the waterline. On the lower lashline I used my dupe for Valiant (inner) and Dianna Undercover (outer)

Mascara- Ok so this collection has colored mascara's and I sadly do not own colored mascaras.. so I did this my own way.. I used a regular black mascara, then I used NYX JP in Mountain Green, then I took a clean mascara wand and rubbed it in an eyeshadow or you could even use pigment and I coat my lashes.. for more coverage you can use your finger for perfect placement. and that is how I created a dupe for Army of Amazons Opal Lash Mascara. (Bright grass green color)

Cheeks

Foundation- True Match

Blush- Instead of using Pink Power skin finish, I just used Heart Throb

LIPS

She uses Emancipation lip glass, I opted not to have a lip gloss because I couldn't find the perfect dupe but I would have gone with a rimmel volume booster in Attract.. (I lost mine! :( )

I went to a red hat sock hop with my mother.. when researching their typical look in the 1950s they had a very "peaches and cream" complexion which was perfect for me because I'm white as a ghost hahaha with pale eyeshadow and a pastel or bright lip and matching fingernails.

Here's my look:

Here's what I used:

EYES

Base- NYX JP in Strawberry Milk

Lid- light pink from Physician's Formula for Hazel Eyes

Crease- Day to play palette (pink/beige)

Highlight-Day to Play (beige)

Liner- NYX JP in Black Bean *Heavy liner on top with winged* and use the same pink on the lid as you do on the bottom liner.

Mascara- Lash Stiletto

CHEEKS

Crease- Day to Play palette (Dark Brown) on the inner crease

Liner- NYX JP in Black Bean on top lid wing it out extreme cat eye, and then place a duochrome black/blue..I decided to use She Space Minerals in Knights Trump Dwarfs, which was a purple blue duochrome pigment. Repeat this on the bottom and Black Bean in the waterline.

So I don't if everyone has heard of Yum Yums... but they were a big thing in the late 80's apparently and I had all of the stuffed animals, a lunch box and the movie. This look will be inspired by Cherry Cherry Poodle.
